This mural was photographed in Calcutta, (Kolkata)
India during their yearly (1994) Kali Puja (festival) and was originally captured on Kodachrome 25 ISO slide film, using a Nikon F4 film based camera and Nikon's 500 mm telephoto lens. During the mural's construction stage, 1400 individual Kodachrome slides were scanned, doing them one image at a time, then all were printed out half scale 3"x4.5" to be careful
taped onto my studio wall. In the process creating the mural one tiny image at a time. This act slowly brought the image to life, ultimately leading to the creation of a work that vaguely resembled the reality that had been originally photographed.

The file numbers were written in pencil on the backs of each proof print, became a kind of "map" of the imagery for me to follow during the final computer construction stage. After this computer assembly was complete, I then somewhat laboriously began removing all of those hard edge lines from each of the 864 image frames.

This unique print has been printed on 60X102 inch satin canvas with a UV protective satin overcoat , the image size is 56x96 inches, with a printing resolution of 300 DPI.
